How can we understand abstract concepts by projecting physical reality onto them if we are not even sure of the related physical reality? Lakoff and Johnson also argue that abstract thought would be meaningless without bodily experience. In our complex world information, though abundant, is seldom obvious in its implications and it’s not the accuracy and abundance of information rather how that information is interpreted enables us to have true knowledge. Compared to Sciences , Mathematics involves use of abstraction and logic to define , test and prove concepts , statements and principles that are universal truths – immutable and unchangeable.

The physicists have long encountered ignorance about disorder in the atmosphere, in the turbulent sea , in the fluctuations of wild life populations, in the oscillations of the heart and the brain- the irregular , non linear , erratic and discontinuous side .
